Re: K-pop.

I love the new SNSD single... Maybe not as much as Gee, but more than Ha Ha Ha. <3 Love the style, it's more sophisticated but still fun pop at the same time. I love the little pause in the middle too... "DJ, put it back on..." I think this is going to be in my head all night long now... <...

Re: Michael Jackson rushed to hospital.

In later years he was a wreck, but he was also one of the most incredible artists of all time. Can anyone think of another artist whose popularity (and later, notoriety) approaches Michael Jackson's? Maybe Madonna, but other than that... He really revolutionized the music industry at the time and so...

Re: [PV] Kago Ai - no hestitAtIon

I like the PV, it shows a much more natural looking Kago than H!P ever did. She feels more real here. The bad is that, while I still like her voice, it doesn't sound as nice on those high notes as in H!P - either she's a little out of practice or the smoking is causing damage. She's still good - but...

Re: Pucchimoni and Tanpopo to come back from the Dead!

That is true, but somehow because I expect it of Morning Musume, I don't mind it. Since they put out so much material, at least there can be a gradual progression... Whereas with the new members and a new music style, there didn't seem to be anything connecting the new line ups of Petit Moni or Tanp...

Re: Pucchimoni and Tanpopo to come back from the Dead!

I'll reserve judgement at least until I see a line-up... But part of me feels like, it's stupid to call them Petit moni or Tanpopo when the members are entirely different, but like TnB said, it is better for marketing due to being established. The question is, even though the name is the same, will ...

I actually really like it. It's a little more modern sounding, with the electronic music and vocals, but still fun and a little crazy like the original. I'd like to hear better quality audio, but I'm liking the sound of it from the preview.
